Who is your favorite crochet expert on You Tube?

There are so many!

I find myself watching Creative Grandma and Bag- O-Day (Crystal) the most. Both have massive collections of stitch tutorials and are very thorough instructors.

I love learning new stitches; I get bored using the same one all the time.

I noticed the blanket reference above. I tell people that if it isn't flat, I am not making it!
Currently working on a blanket for my nephew's new baby girl. I don't make conventional baby blankets; I make them larger.
My daughter recieved a couple of larger one at her baby shower and she says the baby ones are nice when the baby is small, but the larger ones are wonderful because you can cuddle together. Also, the baby grows into the blanket, and it can be used on the "big kid bed" when they get to that point.

I have some stitches I want to learn one of these days: Catherine Wheel, Bavarian, Corner to Corner.

The blanket I am working on has a very relaxing stitch which these days is very helpful

I have to learn how to post pictures!!!
